golly that is horrible... as i am sure you feel the same way... i always had to learn things the hard way... hind sight is always 20/20... sure wish we didn't have to learn the hard way and that people would teach us helpful things to stop us from hurting our selves.. i fell against a cast iron water heater we used to burn trash in and lost 4 and 5 lasyers of skin.. no medical treatment mind ya.. my mom just put butter on it which held in the heat and made it worse.. if you ever get burned again put ice . or cold water on it..asap.never butter or cream..it holds the heat in... hope that this vitamin E helps you completely so you don't have to undergo. surgery... GOD bless you in your endevors..

////////////////////////////////////////////////////> Nice to meet you. I was burning weeds in the ditch and put gasoline on it. Something I have never done before. I then nelt down and used a lighter. Stupid, really stupid. I have no experience with that, and by not knowing, I had no idea it would explode. Had deep second degree burns on my face, lower arms and lower legs. It's been almost a month now, and most of it is healing fine. Just the thought of the scars scare me. I've heard of the Vitamin E, but can't find it at the local Wally World, will have to wait till I can get to a larger city to purchase. I'm using lots of lotion with Vitamin E in it, but people tell me that the pure E oil is better. Thank you for your concern, and once again, it's nice to meet you.
